sorry to disappoint, Andy, but Greenpeace didn’t ask for anyone to “be fired”. Bast got it wrong (again).

as the SciAm article states, this is because of the cheap shale gas that is coming on stream.

Back to the big cough for a mo, folks. FYI sciam has an endgamer lede. To which golden oldie juancole.com has a referenced item to weight the above. Would you believe coal use has dropped 19 percent in one year. Yay 19%. Now, it would seem, constituting but 36 percent of total US power usage.

de Freitas:
Do see Skeptics Prefer Pal Review Over Peer Review: Chris de Freitas, Pat Michaels And Their Pals, 1997-2003″.
‘The scientists were defending peer review from abuse, as was their responsibility to science. de Freitas a martyr for good science? I don’t think so.’

But actually, at the time, the real scientists *underestimated* the extent of the peer review abuse.

Yeah, sure: you just keep on whistling in the dark, soldier.

If you imagine you’ve ever managed to rub the nose of anyone here in anything at all I take it back – you’re more deluded than I thought!

Indeed, Andy, you must be embarrassed to have Treadgold and his ilk on your side. Its turtles all the way down over there….

Yes thanks for reminding us that you and your friend Noel were celebrating the death of Owen McShane before he’s even been buried.

Incidentally, you are currently in a rather pointless thread over at Treadgold’s that has now exceeded 200 comments.

There is absolutely no connection (except in your addled brain) between Salinger and de Frietas and Greenpeace and Heartless (Brainless too).

It shows the complete lack of any morals held by the Khmer Verte

Why, Andy? Or are denier trolls paid by the number of posts they emit?

BTW, since McShane has gone to his just reward, who is the NZCSC bagman now, I wonder? At a guess, Leyland will pick up a cheque when he’s over there.

andyS do you know what a “non sequitur” is? Didn’t think so. Your response is a great example. Nothing surprises me how stupid you act in your responses on this blog. There is absolutely no connection (except in your addled brain) between Salinger and de Frietas and Greenpeace and Heartless (Brainless too).
